The Lucky Tale of Two Dogs traces the lives of two dogs who happen to live "in the very same town, on the very same street," but who share very different lives with their families. The lucky dog has lots of daily interaction with his family, from playtime to walks around the neighborhood. The unlucky dog spends most of his time alone in the backyard "rarely hearing a friendly voice." These comparisons give way to hope when the unlucky dog meets a "kind lady" from the animal shelter who helps him find a new "family to love." The Lucky Tale of Two Dogs tells a simple story that makes it easy for children to understand what dogs need to be healthy and happy. Every dog should be so lucky.
